Re: New Internet plans Comcast is working on!!

To me, this slide looks like something out of a Comcast marketing department brainstorming meeting, maybe held several months ago, when they first got word of Verizon FiOS coming out with their “Quantum” (300/65) tier. Then sometime later on, they finalized their plans with the recently announced “Platinum” 305/65 tier and the Northeast speed upgrades.

From the speeds quoted (100 vs. 105, 300/75 vs. 305/65), the names used for some of the tiers (“Premier” vs. “Platinum”), to the incredible price for that “300/75” tier (I think it was a typo and was supposed to say "$199" instead of "$119"), I have to agree with the others who are very skeptical about this.
